Douglas P. from St. Thomaston, ME. has been metal detecting for some time now.He has previously owned 2 "Good" detectors but when he steped-up to the Top-of-the-Line Minelab Explorer II it was as if he was discovering metal detecting for the first time. His incredible finds include such a wide variety of valuables you hardly know where to begin the description of valuable coins, rings and jewelry... Plus a number of items that presently defy description, but they probably are very valuable. Walking while metal detecting down old roads that have existed since the founding of Maine Douglas has located and recovered incredible items from 18th century Fugio Cents and old rings to a Beautiful Hand Painted Broach and an antique metal bookmark. The broach features a Francois Gerard painting of Madame Recamier. This portrait painter was a court artist for both King Louis XVIII of France and Napoleon. He was also famed for his paintings of non-aristocratic subjects such as Madame Recamier.
Among all the treasures Douglas has found, 2 coins in particular that are worth more than the average cent. The 1892 Canadian Large Cent is valued at $6.00 whereas the 1787 Fugio Cent shown is worth up to $2,400.00! Douglas still thinks the Fugio cent with the American Congress pattern worth $175,000.00 is still somewhere in the ground waiting for him and his Explorer II. |
